ROSE-K Lenses

ROSE-K Lenses

Rose-K Contact Lens is a gas-permeable rigid contact lens design that can help improve vision in those with keratoconus. These lenses are specially designed for keratoconus to help improve visual acuity or vision and are different from traditional contact lenses.

Rose K Lens Ideal for Correcting Vision in Keratoconus

There are several features that make the Rose K lens ideal for correcting vision in keratoconus and other irregular corneal diseases and disorders to improve visual performance. The result is a lens that fits very well over an irregular eye, leading to clear, comfortable, and improved quality of vision.

• Its complex geometry can be customized to suit each eye and can correct all of the myopia and astigmatism associated with keratoconus.
• They are easy to insert, remove and clean.
• They provide excellent health to the eye, because they allow the cornea to "breathe" oxygen directly through the lens.
• Practitioners have the ROSE K trial set fitting system which achieves a first fit success in over 80% of patients internationally.

Because keratoconus is a progressive disease by nature, the Rose K lens must be fitted with extraordinary care and reevaluated at least every year by a contact lens specialist. At Deshpande Eye Care Center, we are experienced with this type of lens and can provide both your initial fitting and your annual evaluations.

Eye Conditions Treated with ROSE-K Lenses:

• Keratoconus (Mild to Moderate)
